How to sell in pack in Shopify | Setting Up Your Online Store for Selling in Packs

What's the Challenge?

Selling products in packs (like 4 or 6 at a time) while still displaying the price per item can be tricky. Some businesses, such as those selling tiles or wooden flooring, face this challenge. These businesses often list their prices per unit, but sell in packs. Shopify, however, typically operates on single quantities. If a vendor lists only the pack price, customers may struggle to calculate how many packs they need to meet their requirements.

What we will do?

Show Individual Prices

Even though they buy in packs, customers can still see the price for one item on the product page. Customer will able to see the cost of per sq meter/foot or any size.

We will change your product page template to clearly show the price per item. This feature can be customize to work based on product template or tag.

Dynamic calculation of pack

We will create option to enter the required size and script will calculate the number of pack required to purchase (e.g., packs of 4, 5, or 6).

These can help adjust the price and checkout process based on the pack size (e.g., ensuring the total price reflects the pack quantity while still showing the individual price on the product page).

Easy for Everyone

The buying process will be clear and easy, so customers know they're getting packs, not single items.

Set Pack Sizes

You will be able to set different pack sizes for individual products. Like few products comes in meter and few in foot or count of pack, how many items come in each pack (like a 4-pack or a 6-pack).
